Crossroads Beginnings
Los Comienzos de la Iglesia Crossroads

CrossroadsChurchBuilding

It began with a call. A young pastor, Dwight Gregory, came from Colorado with a God-given dream to start a church-planting movement in Northeastern New Jersey. In January 1975, the first of many new churches became a reality: Crossroads Free Methodist Church in Passaic was organized. Along the way and in several locations, Crossroads has grown and mothered other congregations.

Comenzó con una llamada. Un joven pastor, Dwight Gregory, vino de Colorado con un sueño dado por Dios de comenzar un movimiento de plantación de iglesias en el noreste de Nueva Jersey. En enero de 1975, la primera de muchas iglesias nuevas se hizo realidad: se organizó la Iglesia Metodista Libre Crossroads en Passaic. En el camino y en varios lugares, Crossroads ha crecido y ha sido madre de otras congregaciones.

Our Current Home

On Easter Sunday 2000, Crossroads Church held the first service at our current home at 195 Piaget Avenue in Clifton, a renovated VFW hall. Over the years we have birthed and sent out several Spanish congregations. Currently on Sundays we have English services at 10 AM and 11:30 AM, then a Spanish service at 1:30 PM.

the life of crossroads

Each week the worship, welcome, and media ministries lift up the name of Jesus, drawing believers to discover a new life in a relationship with God. People are built up through the Growth Track training classes, community groups, children’s program, and life-skills seminars. The Ministry Training Center of Metro NY/NJ empowers men and women to lead and expand Jesus’ kingdom. Prayer ministry and world missions’ groups are touching the world. The Crossroads Cultural Center offers services to the community as we reach out to our neighborhood. God is at work through the body of Christ.
